6. Michael’s is likely to have a pianist serenading its patrons while they partake of homey and delicious pastas. The dining room is a bit retro and has that 60s feel but the hearty food and good service will make it a favorite in the here and now, for sure.

8. Café Roma is a little bake shop and café in the Little Italy neighborhood. A great hot beverage and a pastry and maybe even one to take home for later makes this more of a desert shop, but also a splurge for a calorie laden but delicious breakfast.

9. Arturo’s Coal Oven Restaurant & Pizzeria has been run by the same family since 1957. The pizza is fantastic, the Italian American food is more than adequate and the live jazz that is playing almost every night make this place a great little stop in New York.

10. Scarpetta is an award winning restaurant that offers fresh seasonal foods in a comfortable and enjoyable setting. The food is fresh and delicious. The chef’s polenta is a work of art. A bit pricy, but still affordable, this is a great place for a date or a special night out.

While not always available internet deals or coupons can help make some of these places more available. Look for special seatings, prix fixe deals and other great bargains that will make these Italian restaurants in New York City an affordable taste treat.
